What an awful finale

It had its moments. Pete's montage and Artie's tantrum were great, as was the bit at the end where Claudia is the caretaker. Can't quite make up my mind about Leena-it's so sad that she knew she was going to die in the warehouse. The rest of it-why bother to have defining moments if they're not going to be moments that we know from previous episodes? And such stupid moments-the Rockettes were bad. The ninjas were worse. Artie suddenly revealing all this time he had a son was just stupid. I had a feeling the finale was going to be disappointing and it was.

Yes because a series finale should be a horrible clip show, which only exist to create episodes when the show runs out of money for new content. I soo wish it was a clip show instead of showing new content.

Also I wish it ended after season 1 cause seasons 2-5 were a waste of time. Seasons 2-5 should have been just recaps of season 1. Also there should have been more explosions!

IMO the finale was brilliant because it captured the essence of the best of the show, the fun aspect of chasing down the artifacts and the relationship between the warehouse agents. I actually didn't like it when they got too heavy into the bad guy stuff and the show got dark but they had to do that in order to give the show enough serious content I suppose.

I agree. This was my favorite show on TV and I was really looking forward to a well-thought out, sometimes poignant finale that would tie up some loose ends and give a little hint to the future. This, though, was a disaster.

It had all the feeling of a clip show without the nostalgia. Steve's and Myka's defining moments felt so forced, as was Myka's whole sudden realization that she loved Pete. Artie's was something tacked on.

Pete's was the only one with any substance, and his reaction to the warehouse moving felt genuine. I also liked Claudia's bit at the end. Other than that, this episode seem so cobbled together, it was almost nonsensical.

I appreciate that they tried to wrap it up, but wow, this was lousy. Really, these last six episodes felt as if they were trying to cram two seasons of story arc and character development into a half-season. Sad that that's what fans were left with.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who hated the defining moments. I like Artie's because it was the only not laughable, aside from Pete's of course. Artie's rant was amazing to watch, easily the best part of the episode. I did not like the romance, but they had been leading up to it from the beginning so it had to be done.
The Rockettes part painful to watch and I skipped part of it. The ninja women was just atrocious. The Fantastic Voyage was a horrible attempt at homage, it can be spoofed in comedy series but here it contradicted the cleverness of the show. While throwing in that Artie is a father at the last minute was stupid, at least his defining moment was in character with the rest of the series.

I cannot believe the number of people on here calling this one of the best finales ever.
